THE HOUSE FELL DOWN -- ELTON JOHN, "The Captain and the Kid"(2006)

INTRO
C minorCm | Ab7Ab7 | Bb majorBb G/BG/B | C minorCm
Cm9Cm9 | Ab7Ab7 | Bb majorBb G7G7 | C minorCm
          ("ah-ha-ha-ha..."
  (in time)
C minorCm | Fm/C C minorCm | C minorCm | Fm/C C minorCm |

VERSE
  C minorCm                   Ab7Ab7
The sun is up and the shades are all pulled down
     Bb majorBb      G/BG/B     C minorCm
I'm more paranoid with every little sound
     C minorCm               Ab7Ab7
Like the leaf blower blowing the leaves around
   G7G7                 C minorCm
And a siren wailing on the other side of town

VERSE
    C minorCm                  Ab7Ab7
Oh the TV's on and the colors really hurt my head
      Bb majorBb         G/BG/B       C minorCm
If I could think straight I'd wish that I was dead
  C minorCm              Ab7Ab7
Or curled up naked in my lover's bed
      G7G7                   C minorCm
Instead I'm hanging over Hell suspended by a single thread

CHORUS
      Fm7Fm7            Bb majorBb
And I don't recall who said it at this time
     AbAb      Eb MajorEb         Bb majorBb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
      Fm7Fm7           Bb majorBb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
       AbAb          Eb MajorEb
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed
       G7/D
He huffed and puffed,
       C minorCm       Fm7Fm7  G7G7  C minorCm
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down

INSTRUMENTAL
C minorCm | Fm/C C minorCm | C minorCm | Fm/C C minorCm |

VERSE
    C minorCm                 Ab7Ab7
With a rolled up note I'm hovering on that line
   Bb majorBb        G/BG/B     C minorCm
Three days on a diet of cocaine and wine
   C minorCm                Ab7Ab7
And a little weed just to level me sometime
     G7G7                        C minorCm
I put the clock in the drawer 'cause I've cancelled out the time

CHORUS
        Fm7Fm7          Bb majorBb
And still that saying gets inside my head
     AbAb      Eb MajorEb         Bb majorBb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
      Fm7Fm7           Bb majorBb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
       AbAb          Eb MajorEb
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed
       G7/D
He huffed and puffed,
       C minorCm       Fm7Fm7  G7G7  C minorCm
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down

BREAKDOWN
     Am7b5Am7b5
So don't knock on my door, don't try to call
  Ab7Ab7
I'm holed up in this room talking to the wall
        Am7b5Am7b5
When you're as high as this you think you know it all
      Ab7Ab7                  G+G G/AG/A G/BG/B G/AG/A G7G7
When you're this deep in there's no place else to fall

INSTRUMENTAL
          C minorCm | Ab7Ab7 | Bb majorBb G/BG/B | C minorCm
"I'm bottoming out"
C minorCm | Ab7Ab7 | G7G7 | C minorCm

CHORUS
      Fm7Fm7            Bb majorBb
And I don't recall who said it at this time
     AbAb      Eb MajorEb         Bb majorBb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
      Fm7Fm7           Bb majorBb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
       AbAb          Eb MajorEb
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed
       G7/D
He huffed and puffed,
       C minorCm       Fm7Fm7  G7G7  C minorCm
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
        Fm7Fm7          Bb majorBb
And still that saying gets inside my head
     AbAb      Eb MajorEb         Bb majorBb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
      Fm7Fm7           Bb majorBb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
       AbAb          Eb MajorEb
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed
       G7/D
He huffed and puffed,
       C minorCm       Fm7Fm7  G7G7  C minorCm
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
    Fm7Fm7  G7G7  C minorCm
And the house fell down
